About This Work

Georges Bizet's opera "Carmen" is probably one of the most famous operas of all time, and the "March of the Toreadors" - the prelude to opera - is the most well-known melody from the score. It has been used in movies, commercials, and cartoons for years and its infectious rhythms and rousing melody make it great fun to play and an ideal concert opener. Freely scored by Geoff Kingston this is suitable for bands of all grades.
